- Plugin Manager – The plugin manager hooks into the central list of plugins so you don’t have to go hunting all over the internet to find the ones you want.
LightTable 0.8.1 is the latest version available of the LightTable IDE. LightTable 0.8.1 has been released with the following changes:
- CHANGED: [:app :lt.objs.settings/pair-keymap-diffs] behavior is being deprecated. Use [:editor :lt.objs.editor/autoclose-brackets] in your user.behaviors instead. lt.objs.editor/autoclose-brackets should fix autoclosing characters e.g. ‘[{” for international users.
- CHANGED: Backspace key uses the same CodeMirror plugin that lt.objs.editor/autoclose-brackets does
- CHANGED: lt.util.cljs/js->clj is being deprecated. Plugin authors can use the js->clj that comes with ClojureScript
- CHANGED: Removed unused lt.objs.titlebar ns and lt.objs.titlebar/add-titlebar behavior
- CHANGED: Removed unused styling in structure.css
- CHANGED: Removed harbor and jshint node packages that belong to other LightTable plugins
- CHANGED: Removed :hide-connect command which is the same as :show-connect
- CHANGED: Removed light skin which was just a confusing pointer to dark skin
- CHANGED: files/open-sync logs an error when trying to open a nonexistent file. Previously the error was ignored
- CHANGED: Check for updates every hour instead of every 5 minutes
- FIX: Git (vcs) friendly! Changing branches and doing rebases doesn’t cause buggy dialogs. If a file is removed, the tab is closed. If a file has a local modification, the user decides whether to overwrite the current file or not
- FIX: LightTable documentation supports navigation as it is now in a browser tab
- FIX: Save and remove trailing whitespace behavior refreshes tab
- FIX: Navigator no longer cuts off end of files i.e. can scroll horizontally
- FIX: Case sensitive renaming of files e.g. readme -> README
- FIX: Faster detection of binaries in build scripts
- FIX: In linux, middle click to close tab doesn’t paste clipboard contents
- FIX: :open-path command resolves relative paths before opening them
- FIX: Clearer description of font-settings behavior
- FIX: Clear console error when github endpoints returns invalid JSON
- FIX: All errors are consistently caught and logged to console
- ADDED: Light Table builds without warnings on ClojureScript 1.7.x
- ADDED: Add build target for generating cljsdeps.js (need for ClojureScript upgrade)
- ADDED: Linux and Windows users have access keys on menus
- ADDED: Linux and Windows users have additional menu items under File: Quit Light Table and About Light Table
- ADDED: Added file type definitions for html templates: ERB, ASPX, EJS, JSP
